Sinopsis

Filmmaking for Change delves into the dynamic realm of indigenous filmmaking as a potent catalyst for social transformation, cultural preservation, and social justice. It examines how indigenous filmmakers globally are leveraging visual storytelling to dismantle misrepresentations, reclaim their narratives, and advocate for tangible change. The book highlights the crucial role of controlling representation to counter harmful stereotypes perpetuated by mainstream media. Did you know that indigenous filmmaking is not just artistic expression but a vital tool for decolonization and cultural revitalization? Or that film has been used to reclaim cultural heritage through documentary filmmaking?

 
The book progresses systematically, beginning with theoretical frameworks, followed by specific case studies of indigenous filmmaking initiatives organized around major themes like challenging stereotypes and community organizing. It emphasizes the agency and resilience of indigenous filmmakers, offering a nuanced account of their experiences. The book uniquely blends rigorous scholarship with accessible storytelling, making it valuable for students and scholars across film studies, social sciences, and indigenous studies.

Over the past two decades, postcommunist countries have witnessed a sudden shift in the electoral fortunes of their political parties: previously successful center-left parties suffered dramatic electoral defeats and disappeared from the political scene, while right-wing populist parties soared in popularity and came to power. This dynamic echoed similar processes in Western Europe and raises a question: Were these dynamics in any way connected? When Right Moves Left argues that they were. And that the root of the connection between them lies in the pro-market rebranding of the ex-communist left—the key explanatory variable. This book asserts that, though the left's pro-market shift initially led to electoral rewards, it had a less straightforward impact on left-wing parties' electoral fortunes in the long run. 
 
 
 
The book draws upon different levels of analysis: cross-country observational data, case studies, and individual-level experimental surveys. It argues that scholars should incorporate the economic policy dimension when explaining the demise of the left and the rise of the populist right in the region. It also examines important parallels between the dynamics of Western and postcommunist countries by arguing that the idiosyncrasy of Eastern European politics has been overstated in scholarly literature.
